To be fair here, Cyx, it's just a figure of speech. Much like calling the non-digital world the "real world", even though the digital world is also the "real world".

I'm glad someone like Troxx injects humour into an otherwise painfully futile debate with someone who does not care about objective truth.

If shamans truly were better than mage at DPS, why would I be any more upset about it than the fact enchanter is a disgustingly overpowered class? I know this game is imbalanced.

The thing is, though: you're not right, DSM. Mage is a better group DPS than shaman.

And why is this so difficult for you to admit? Shaman is an overall more powerful and more interesting class than mage. Noone here debates this. You can't concede over something so innocuous?

What is wrong with you?!
Nobody has argued Mages aren't a DPS class. The question is how much their DPS matters when looking at a four man group.

I am not sure where this strawman came from that I said Shamans are better at DPS in all situations or something.

We have proven it! What...?

What do you think those mage logs were all about?

You even admitted they did more damage -- just that shaman still had more worth in the long run. I thought that's what the debate was all about?

Keep your story straight, you manipulative sociopath.

You missed my edit, I misread your post:

As I have already stated to you, it is not always clear to other posters just exactly what particular position/stance/claim/"argument"(s) you are attempting to defend at any given time - due to how often you have moved goalposts and edited your posts - so, for the sake of civil discussion, please let us know what your current stance is and what - factual, relevant - evidence you have provided that supports it. This really isn't hard hehe. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

And we told you, ad nauseam, that shaman utility is redundant.

Maybe it's time for you to stop fucking stealth editing if it's becoming a problem?

Also, why did you say "prove it" to begin with? Why didn't you say "Yeah, mages are better DPS, but they're not better in this group."?

Look at you backpeddle so furiously! What is wrong with you, man? This is just depressing at this point.

I just made a mistake and thought you said "Mages are the better group class". You need to calm down lol. It is not my fault you are refreshing the page every 2 seconds in the hopes I respond.

The problem is you haven't shown the Shaman's utility is less useful than the Mage's DPS.

However, I have shown a Mage's DPS isn't giving you any more kills per hour. The math is still true.

Right now, the data shows Shaman Utility > DPS when DPS is giving you 0 extra kills per hour in a session.

Having better safety and more camp options is better than useless DPS.

No...

I said, clearly, "better group DPS", and even said "shamans are an overall more useful and interesting class".

How could you misread that and arrogantly say "prove it"?!?!

Unlike yourself, I can admit when I made a mistake. I simply read your sentence wrong.

I am sorry you are refreshing every two seconds, so you won't get to see my final post.

You probably need to take a break.

I am going where the data leads, and right now the Mage simply isn't offering any more kills per hour. Nobody has been able to show any other benefit to DPS other than kills per hour and safety. Shamans cover the safety part and offer more camp options. I am really not sure why this is such a problem.

I doubt you "made a mistake" here in the way you're framing it. It's rather more likely your thinly veiled attempts at trolling backfired upon you, rather than you "misreading".

If we didn't need another hint at your disgusting behaviour, then I guess you can just melt this one down and add it to the others.
